And don't base your choice of affiliate program solely on the commission rates, do your research on the company itself, there's alot of crap out in the online rx market to sift through. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Percentages mean nothing if they 1) don't convert or 2) they don't pay you. The first one is easy - look at their site. Would YOU buy from them? If not, your visitors probably won't either. Would you recommend them to your family? Would you let your Mom take something she bought from there? As for the 2nd, like RazorNF said, research the company themselves. Some companies claim to offer huge payouts to attract the naive. Then they reverse most of your sales (or the sales never get recorded to begin with) - in the end they get free advertising and you get less than you would with a lower percentage elsewhere. Just one of many ways sleazy merchants cheat affiliates.

Develop a site with specific targeted visitors. Then pick a program that you will most likely get converts regardless of the payout to you. Collect a data base from this (and some $$), then start thinking about testing other programs later. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/affiliate-talk/719954-dont-understand-the-commision.html \/ thanks for that DU

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Just a warning: A lot of Rx affiliate programs are illegal in the US and your domain may be shut down by ICE or other programs depending on where you are registered. If you can buy something that you shouldn't be able to .. do you really want to deal with it? It's not always obvious who is legit. And yes - it's possible to be shut down JUST FOR LINKING. So - find one that's legal... there's probably an approved list. You're best off sticking with the regular companies imho.
